Windows 7: Windows 7 refurbished

Lately my PC has been running slower than usual, loading into windows takes 3-minutes which is really frustrating. So I'm looking to Wipe my PC and Reinstall windows altogether. Windows itself is £67 but I've saw a refurbished version which is around £35 which is a huge difference for me. So i'm wondering what is the difference when purchasing refurbed version and will i run into unusual problems.

Yep I ran into one on Amazon in a early morning rush bought it not reading I have previously bought one for the same price that was legit system builders,
The second was nothing more than a recovery disk which should be about 15.us according to the first seller

Got lucky and got a full refund but that is true these things are all over the place and are not worth a second look = Run
